Default destoyers way to passive

Lately i,m loosing interest in sh-3 . Its way to easy . When i,m detected of when i pumped in some torps i go to 60 meters and go silent . I dont release any decoys and dont manuaver to evade the destoyers . All they do is drop a few depth charges and go on and look in the wrong direction . Its july 1944 . My viic is only upgraded with tower 3 and the second rubber skin to evade the pings . But all they ever do is loose me . When i have multple destoryers look for me they sometimes drop charges reasonably near me but i only get shaken up a little . I mean i,nm starting to loose my interest in sh-3 becuase of the lack of any real action besides the attack . I mean in real life 1944 it was damn hard to get rid of them ! I try to make is easy for them by not going to deep but even this does not give me any real action . I,ve allways been looking for the das boot experience in sh-3 . But since the day i,ve been playing it since it first came out it has become clear to me that sh3 really lacks in this perspective .

I use a modified version of Destroyer Aggression mod which I plan to release eventually.

Those guys are anything but passive for me

oh well i know what ur talking about. just had a ~4 month break from sh3, and the pooed dd´s where my nr1 letdown.

i got back now, and spend quite some time finding suitable mods for me. wasnt easy coz alot happened in the meantime.
just finished my first post break career, wnd well... some stuff has realy been improved, thanx to iub, hollywood, sh3 commander and nygm mod.

i do think that the dd´s are still not dangerous enough. i got through 8 patrols, from okt 1940 till jan 42, and i had only one real dd charge, where three destroyers had a go at me. that was pretty cool, since one of the blackswan, dunno why there are so many of them in it now, but hey, constantly reaquired me via ping. they unloaded around 70 charges at me, which gave some of my crewmen quite a chill. minor damge only tho.

i noticed that many dd´s doesnt seem to have any asdic equipment installed tho :/. is that some game balancing fix which came with iub/rub?

Lose your rubber dress and no silent running...
One other way is to upgrade all Destroyers to elite and don't use rubber, It's much nicer without. he he

For me they are a real pain, If they once find me it's no peace intill I'm dead or have sink them. Btw I don't have the "Destroyer sonar fix"
